    I had to stop and get a birthday present for my son. I don't really begrudge the guy his chance to get Devy, I just don't want to hear about it as a consumer wanting my own. :)

    you can never count on them to tell you the truth when calling in
    I remember a while ago I called mine to ask if they had something in stock. They said yes. So I go and find out they never had any in stock.

    I forgot to mention that the TRU employee who was ringing me up the other day mentioned that someone had returned a Devastator claiming it was defective because it didn't have any hands and feet. Well, uh, looks like TRU got taken for a ride and someone gained some extra parts unethically.

    I love garbage truck Transformers, but unfortunately, most movie figures look like crumpled aluminum cans in robot mode. Although in his case that sort of works. LOL

    Yesterday I saw a Devastator in Champaign, IL at the TRU. Didn't get it, got back up here and today at TRU asked when they might get more. They said the warehouse doesn't even have any. Is there a saturation date?

    Bluestreak was also here at the Algonquin TRU. There was just one, gone now.

    South Elgin Target had RiD Drift, Prime, Jazz and Sideswipe, those new Mini-Cons in the puzzle aisle, and a leader CW Thundercracker. Toys R Us next door had 1 CW Rodimus, 1 CW Skywarp. Also had a few Warpaths and a Groove. I'm surprised that place hasn't jacked up all their prices. Got myself a SW, and had a merchandise credit on me so I only paid 5 and change :D 

    Oh and no trace of Devy. Oh wells.

    Devy is available on the TRU website. Anyone got any good TRU coupons that are currently active?

    Sorry to hijack but are there any anime stores in Chicago that sell figures? Can't really seem to find any.
